  • Comment only I think "award winning" and "to kids" can be trimmed from both hooks, in the interests of brevity. Edwardx (talk) 12:37, 15 December 2016 (UTC)
Thank you. I agree 'for kids' is probably redundant, I guess I put it there for emphasis. I quite like 'award winning' but I would love to hear other opinions. Thanks for your comments. Mramoeba (talk) 14:33, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
  • ALT2 ...that award-winning physicist Jeff Forshaw (pictured) has a special interest in quantum chromodynamics and appeared on BBC Television to explain the Higgs boson to children under 12? Source: as above and "Newsround has a target audience of 6 to 12-year-olds" [1]

  • This article is new enough and long enough. Approving ALT2 and ALT3, both of which have inline citations. The image is suitably licensed, the article is neutral and seems to conform to policy. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:04, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
